Directions:
Directions:
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

Make salsa first so the flavors can mellow. Combine all salsa ingredients in a glass bowl. Stir to blend, and set aside at room temperature until fish has finished cooking.

In a shallow baking dish that’s large enough to hole the fish fillets in a single layer, combine the olive oil, orange zest, orange juice, salt, pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes.

Rinse the fillets and pat them dry on paper towels. Place them in the baking dish and turn to coat with the seasonings. Bake for 10-12 minutes in the preheated oven, until fish can be flaked with a fork.

Place fillets on a platter, and spoon the salsa over them to serve.
